Embracing a New Era
We are very excited to present a completely restructured Basic Orthodontic course for the dental auxiliary! Due to the increased usage of third party ceph tracing services and digital tracing software, we have removed the clinical portion of ceph tracing from the two day program. This will allow more time to focus on the clinical procedures that will better serve the doctor in their day to day delivery of patient care. We listened to your requests and have introduced a clinical photography module to the basic program. Our goal is to teach proper techniques and procedures for producing consistent high quality images for orthodontic documentation. Each office that is represented is encouraged to bring their camera in order for us to customize their procedures and settings. Multiple stations are set-up in the classroom so that each assistant can produce a complete set of images that meet the standard of care guidelines.
Enroll now while seats are still available because this course will sell out! Kay Gerety's orthodontic assistant courses are highly respected and only offered once a year. Kay's Basic Ortho Training course is the perfect opportunity for you to begin the process of providing your staff with the knowledge and confidence they need to successfully perform the duties you choose to delegate. If your staff members are more experienced and are looking for more of a challenge and want to further expand their knowledge, Kay also offers an Advanced course that will meet their needs.

The success of a dental practice, and the successful incorporation of orthodontics into a practice, can hinge on the education and training of its staff. This hands-on course is designed to meet the needs of doctors and assistants who are currently utilizing Straight-Wire mechanics and would like to expand the duties that may be delegated to, and performed by, the assistant. You can’t afford to miss out on the opportunity to train your staff to accept these responsibilities and to encourage their professional growth.
This is a beginning course specifically designed to teach the fundamentals of orthodontics to chair-side auxiliaries. No experience is necessary to succeed in this course and there are no orthodontic prerequisites. This is a two-day course featuring lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on exercises. Our instructors, Kay Gerety and Dr. Damon Huffman, will provide your staff with a clear understanding of orthodontics beginning with patient records, and building on each lesson to conclude with bracket and archwire placement.
